YEWS (TAXUS) are particularly valuable for planting in shady places 
and in cities where the smoky atmosphere is injurious to most ever- 
greens. Their bright red fruits among the dark green leaves make 
them the most interesting of all evergreens in late summer. They 
stand much trimming, are long lived, and free from pests. Plant in 
the richest soil, well mixed with peat and humus. A very few are 
larger than are listed. For them add $3.00 per foot for the additional 
size.
